Who snagged the USB/Black from Santa Fe, NM? That went fast after posting.

Add your VIN to the Lexus app and wait. It's not really a tracking mechanism, but it will, or at least it has historically, display mileage & fuel tank level when it's processed at the port. You'll notice the 'last updated' date will increment when the vehicle is started after that along the way. Your dealer has access to other detailed tracking milestones like 'loaded on train' etc.

The picture does not do it justice.

I was in hot pursuit of a White/Black from Louisiana until I found an Atomic Silver/Black. I added that VIN to the app w/o subscribing to Enform. Initially it displayed the basic vehicle specs followed by mileage and fuel level. You should have the same experience unless Lexus updated the app.

Pretty sure it's not just plug and play. Will have to do some tapping. Instructions are included usually.

Man. I seriously struck a nerve with the Lexus of Pembroke sales rep. 😂

He clearly did not like that his dealership was mentioned.

Well, my mind is blown. I had no idea the DHP had black mirror caps (even on the bottom). If you simply Google it, all the results have all-black mirrors... Weird!

Maybe on Caviar, Lexus didn't bother because it is already black - but that would complicate production, right? Doesn't make much sense if you ask me.

I'm just curious how they contacted @DLPTony I doubt they had his number, so they probably made an account on here just to message him. In which case.... @Lexus of Pembroke Pines and North Miami and Mr. Craig Zinn himself; your dealerships are filled with slimy dealership practices and you should be ashamed of how you treat your customers' vehicles and the customers themselves. Do you guys include a bottle of Vaseline with every purchase?

Discount Parts Monster lost me forever as a customer yesterday. They're a Zinn organization too. I won't go into details, but fundamentally it was without any question the worst customer service experience I've had since I bought a paper shredder from a moron in New Jersey in 2004.
